Chp. 2 Knux meets Rogue!
Disclaimer: I do not own SA2Battle!
AN: All of this fan fic is not going to be EXACTLY the same as the game, since this is supposed to be an AU fic. -_-;; So, I'm probably going to change some events (a lot). Again, sorry for the short chappie, and OOCness. R+R!
Rouge wiped her sweaty hands on her skintight black pantsuit (AN: is this what you call it? I don't know fashion talk -_-;; ), gasping because of the heat of the desert. She sensed that the Master Emerald must be around here somewhere. She KNEW that the Master Emerald was close, very close. The expert jewel thief and treasure hunter had heard of the precious gem, ever since she was a very small, young bat.
Her senses were leading her toward a large temple, with two tan regal stone echidnas facing toward the entrance, as if guiding her toward her destination. She strutted up the steps, glancing back and forth between the two stone echidnas, in case someone was hiding behind them. She continued up the large hard stone steps, feeling confident that she was getting warmer (um, getting really close to her target location of the gem; she's also warm literally, she's in the desert, after all.) towards the location of the gem.
Her pink, high-heeled boots clacked against the hard stone of steps, and was about to take another step, when-
Rouge back flipped out of the way of the lasers forming out of the echidnas' holes for eyes. The lasers had both shot out and aimed where Rouge was just at, the step was cracked and black, and smoke was hissing from out of the crack. Small chunks of debris were scattered all over the other steps, and at Rouge's feet.
/No wonder no one ever came to here to steal, I mean, claim the Emerald./ She got up, and wiped off the sand, and tiny pieces of debris off herself. /My brand new black suit!(AN: Is this what you would call it?) And my boots! Grr..someone's going to pay./ She glanced around, searching for a way to get in without being fried to death. /Maybe../
She glided, and climbed up to the echidna on the left, and put her head in front of its view. Swiftly, she put out her compact mirror /Good thing I had it before leaving my apartment./ and deflected the laser beam back at it. She flipped off the echidna, before the echidna exploded, and the large chunks of it strike her, and in the motion of flipping, she aimed the compact mirror at the other statue. That one exploded as well. When she landed, both echidnas were destroyed. She wiped herself once again, to rid of the dust.
/Now my pantsuit and heels are REALLY ruined!/ "Hmmp! If they think they can stop me, they're SO wrong!"
Angry, annoyed, and 'filthy' in her opinion, the beautiful white bat glided over the devastation, and stalked towards the entryway. It was dark, then sunlight blinded her for a few seconds. "Huh?" Inside, there were many dark hallways, and only one of them was lit. "Well, duh! I'll take that one." She walked into the lit hallway, and stopped halfway, for there was our favorite (yeah, right!) little robotic Omochao (that have been following Rouge everywhere, giving useless advice) just sitting in the middle of the hallway, underneath a dark shadow. Now, if I were Rouge, would I even THINK of being anywhere underneath that shadow?
Rouge stepped into the shadowed area- Omochao shouted, "Watch out for the-"
Rouge didn't bother to look up; she back flipped out of the shadow. A large, smooth, heavy looking golden anvil covered the area she was just standing in. Luckily, she dodged it in the nick of time..
Omochao, however, was..how you say..not as lucky. Rouge heard his smothered, weak reply from underneath the anvil, "shadow, for you will get squashed!" Rouge smirked. /Maybe that stupid robot will leave me alone./ She stomped onto the anvil (with Omochao still under it) and walked on.
She unknowingly stepped unto an echidna symbol on the ground, which moved down underneath Rouge's weight. She noticed too late, that she had set off a trap-
"Aaugh!" She was pinned against the cold stone wall, because several arrows had caught the top of her gloves, stuck her into the side of the wall. Large axes had struck the same wall also, nearly severing her wings. /Phew../ "Now how am I going to get down?"
"Maybe if you gave people some privacy, you wouldn't be in this situation."
Rouge looked down to the owner of the cynical voice. The voice belonged to a red, good-looking young, echidna. She stared at the angry, but handsome purple eyes that glared back at her.
She tried to look innocent. "Oh, I didn't mean to mean to-"
"Save it. I wouldn't have believed your excuse, anyway." He still did not release the white bat.
Suddenly, the white bat saw a flash of movement behind the echidna. "Look! Behind you!"
The echidna folded his arms. "Oh, NO. I'm falling for that one!" Rouge squirmed, trying to release herself, unsuccessfully. She cried, "No really! I think I saw something black! And I saw something green, too!"
The echidna's purple eyes widened. "THE MASTER EMERALD!" He asked her, "Which way did he go?!"
The white bat now smirked. "If you release me.."
He frowned. Grumbling, he viciously took off the arrows from her elegant arm-length gloves. "NOW, WHICH WAY?"
She swiftly ran toward the direction of the thief. Knuckles took chase without hesitation. They went on a cat-and-mouse chase, chasing the black (/hedgehog?/Rouge thought.) and stopped at another trap. Knuckles undid the trap, and they continued on.
Fate was with them, for the dark form of the thief did not have good vision in the darkness of the temple and had gotten himself/herself stuck in the quicksand pit. Knuckles and Rouge ran in just in time to see the hands of the criminal and the valuable Emerald above the surface of the pit. Rouge said, "How do we get it from here?" Knuckles looked around. He saw, in the corner of his eye, long grape vines along the walls. He went to the wall and climbed onto the vines.
"What are you doing?" Rouge shouted. "This is no time for fooling around. The Master Emerald will be swallowed up, if we do not get it in time!"
Knuckles ignored her, and used his sharp knuckles (this is probably the reason he's called Knuckles, or Knuckle Head, um, duh.) to cut one of the vines. The vine unattached from the wall, and Knuckles swung on it towards the Emerald. He lowered his hand to grab the Emerald. He missed by inches. "Darn!" Rouge was making a commotion, panicking for the Emerald was sinking.
He got to the other wall and pushed with his feet. He swung back. Closer, closer, closER.. "GOT IT!"
"YESSS!" Rouge punched in the air, and when Knuckles swung back, and jumped down to the floor, she ran towards him.. and swiped the Emerald from him! She glided away as a very annoyed Knuckles pursued hurriedly after her. "HEY! That's MY Emerald!"
What they did not notice was the gloved hand emerging from the nightmarish pit..
TO BE CONTINUED..of course! AN: Okay, okay. It's not exactly great, but at least it's not EXACTLY the same as the game! Next chapter, Knuckles and Rouge search for the pieces of Master Emerald! I still plan to make this a Sonic/Tails fic. Please review!
